    It don't know if anyone has mentioned it already, but previous experience of the O2 is that 112 is where a lot of comp tickets are - Record company tickets and the like. May explain more casual reactions and no-shows.

    Sorry to hear about the crowd issues for those enough lucky to attend and stand that close to the stage. But I feel bad for the people that came here to relive and write about what looked to be one of the best of the tour only to be served six pages of complaining.

    There should be a 10c section at every show. When there is, there’s a better vibe. In Padova, Prague and Rome they worked perfectly. There is only bother when the GA is a free for all.
    I've seen PJ in arenas multiple times in the UK and Eire (Wembley Arena, Manchester MEN Arena, London O2, Dublin, Belfast and Leeds) and I'm certain that there's never been a separate floor area for 10C at any of them. Is it just a European thing to have a 10C section, or is it just a UK thing to not have one?
    Oh yeah? Well, I've had about enough of morons and halfwits, dolts, dunces, dullards and dumbbells - and you chowderhead yokel, you blithering hayseed, you - you've had enough of me?

    Well this happened fast, but there is already a great video up of the show. Maybe this is from the guy who was using someone as a tripod for their camera.

    With all due respect  it is a fan view and that is to report good and bad. If it was great then great if not why not write about it. The band and the set are not in question here from anyone..they were faultless and put on one hell of a show.  That s a fact we all agree on!

    Can’t wait to watch some footage. I loved our view of the stage from side on in up in 401, but I did miss being able to see some of the close up shots of faces you get on the screens (although I usually ignor the screens for the most part).

    Terrible  crowd and terrible venue security 
    For me the crowd was amazing in every way.
    How can one say that the crowd was amazing when Eddie himself had to ask to the crowd to take three steps back...
    I was going to say this. The crowd clearly wasn't "amazing in every way".

    Well, unless you were amazed to see that many idiots at a PJ show.

    he did that last time at the O2 and at Milton Keynes.  The crowd are at a rock concert,  not fucking church.

    So you're saying that Prague and Krakow from this year, or an endless of shows with GA before were not rock concerts because Eddie didn't have to stop the show and ask people to take steps back - or talking to the security having them keep their focus on certain people/parts of the crowd?

    I've been fooled.

    You need a 10c barrier
    most or maybe all of the drunk people around me in the pit are not from 10c.

    You are pissing me off with this church bollocks. Let's see when it's you or your family. All well and good being a hard man on the computer  and at a gig when you don't care about anyone around you drunk and stupid.  Just respectfully understand  the point being made by people who had an experience different to yours.

    It was also compounded of course by 1000+ 10c GA tickets going out to the public. I feel so sad for your guys who had a bad time :( It was such an amazing show.

    ^^this is a heartfelt response. Good man. People who get all. "It's a rock gig" just grow up . It is never ok in any public place to act this way . Pulling people away from the ones they went to the show with having rucksack on
    Or grabbing women and pushing them down
     Just not OK with me and many other normal people .

    I actually dont really mind if some people are a bit aggressive
    for instance in barcelona people were moshing, i got hit, but they were singing along
    in london it was random drunk guys who spins around like a dumbass maniac

    10c must have a seperate section. If you want the rail and happy to queue to get it, great. I’ve joined the line at early entry time and always had a good spot about 3or 4 rows from Mike. Keep GA behind a secondary barrier and everyone is happy.
